Project 366: Day 184

Sunflowers are my favorite flowers. I’ve tried and tried again to grow sunflowers in our yard to no avail. Trees surround our yard providing another kind of beauty. Still, I hope for the day I am able to grow my own garden of sunflowers.

Until that time, I am grateful for the patches of sunflowers near our home. May this giant beauty add a bit of sun to your day, and may you come across one of your own favorite things.

I would love to grow some too. So far no such “accidents” in the pastures at the farm. Rick picked up some wildflower seed in Fredericksburg. The shop owners said just throw it out in the pastures. hmmmm…wonder what we’ll get.

I fed birds sunflower seeds religiously in hopes I would be fortunate to have a happy accident. A woman I know does the same thing, and she has a bountiful prize of sunflowers. Alas, I’ve yet to get the same results.

I needed to “like” your post so my gravatar would show up. I love sunflowers too!! I found sunflowers to be extremely easy to grow – hurricane Irene hit my northern Vermont home last August and my sunflowers all got knocked down – but none died – they just changed their route toward the sun. Amazing.

I’ve always loved sunflowers, and your picture was a beauty. The little farm down the street grows them, and I try to pick a bunch up every few weeks. I found that if I put seven-up in the water, they stay perfect for nearly two weeks.
